Default Rear suspension squeak

Hi,upon coming home this evening, i noticed there was a small amount of squeaking on the right rear suspension. Its so small that its fairly hard to notice unless the car is right next to a wall where you can hear the sound. This squeaking only occurs when i accelerate the car slowly and then it goes away. What could this be? End links? Any inputs would be appreciated.

FYI: suspension mods....Tein Basics Coil overs, eibach sways, GT spec rear tie brace and front, SPC rear camber arms. Had an alignment done a few weeks ago, and had no noise until today. Went on a run yesterday with many twisting turns.

not enough grease applied to the inside of the bushing on your rear sways.

How long ago did you install your suspension?

I had this place install my Hotchkis springs...and right after I kept hearing squeaking out of my right rear...drove me crazy for 6 months until I had my friend take apart my suspesion to take a look and it turns out the boot for the lower part of the spring had some rocks embedded in it and the pan...took the rocks off and now my suspension is quiet....

Well, except for my shot front shocks ...saving up for some tokicko d specs..
